In the fast-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, organizations of all types face an ever-growing array of threats. Like a skilled Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner navigates through various positions and moves to gain control over an opponent, businesses must strategically assess and mitigate their cybersecurity risks. In this article, we explore how the Cyber Risk Exposure ThreatNG Security Ratings capability, akin to mastering the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, can empower organizations to defend against external threats, incorporating detailed insights from External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Digital Risk Protection Intelligence findings.

Setting the Scene: ThreatNG Security Ratings as the Black Belt of Cybersecurity

Imagine a cybersecurity world where organizations possess a black belt to defend against cyber threats. ThreatNG Security Ratings serves as the metaphorical black belt, providing organizations with a comprehensive view of their cyber risk exposure. This capability goes beyond traditional cybersecurity methods, incorporating External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Digital Risk Protection Intelligence to deliver an "X Susceptibility and eXPosure" score.

EASM: The Guard Position of Cybersecurity

Just as a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner employs the guard position to protect against potential threats, EASM shields organizations from external attacks. This technique involves meticulously examining the external attack surface and evaluating parameters such as certificates, subdomain headers, vulnerabilities, and sensitive ports. By adopting the guard position through EASM, organizations can identify potential weak points in their cyber defenses, allowing for a proactive approach to risk mitigation.

Digital Risk Protection Intelligence: Executing the Perfect Submission Move

Digital Risk Protection Intelligence delivers precise and targeted findings like a well-executed submission move in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It dissects the Code Secret Exposure, investigating code repositories and their exposure levels and scanning for the presence of sensitive data. This move ensures that organizations identify vulnerabilities and gain insights into potential cyber threats before they materialize.

Cloud and SaaS Exposure: Ground Control in the Cyber Arena

Organizations must establish ground control over their Cloud and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions in the vast cyber arena. Like a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner who strives to control the ground game, evaluating cloud services and SaaS solutions is essential for a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. ThreatNG's Cloud and SaaS Exposure module uncovers compromised credentials on the dark web, providing organizations with the necessary insights to fortify their defenses.

Crafting the Cybersecurity Arsenal: Business Impact Analysis and Key Risk Indicators

In the realm of cybersecurity, knowledge is power. Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) are weapons in an organization's cybersecurity arsenal. Through ThreatNG Security Ratings, organizations gain a qualitative and quantitative understanding of their cyber risk exposure. This comprehensive approach allows them to craft a strategic defense, prioritizing mitigation efforts based on the potential business impact.

Risk Mitigation: The Art of Defense

In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, defense is an art form, and the same holds for cybersecurity. Armed with ThreatNG Security Ratings, organizations can implement a tailored risk mitigation strategy. By understanding their Risk Appetite and Tolerance, businesses can efficiently allocate resources to address the most critical vulnerabilities, ensuring a resilient cybersecurity posture.

Navigating the Threat Landscape: Threat Vector Analysis 

Much like a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner anticipates an opponent's moves, organizations must analyze the Threat Landscape and assess Threat Vectors. ThreatNG's comprehensive approach covers the entire spectrum of cyber threats, enabling organizations to stay one step ahead. This proactive stance ensures that potential threats are identified and neutralized before they can exploit vulnerabilities.

Mastering the Cybersecurity Art with ThreatNG Security Ratings

In the ever-evolving world of cybersecurity, organizations must approach threats with the precision and strategic thinking of a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu master. ThreatNG Security Ratings, equipped with EASM and Digital Risk Protection Intelligence, provides the tools to effectively understand, assess, and mitigate cyber risks. By incorporating concepts such as Business Impact Analysis, Cyber Risk Exposure, and Risk Mitigation, organizations can cultivate a cybersecurity strategy that not only defends against current threats but also anticipates and prepares for future challenges. Just as a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner achieves mastery through continuous learning, organizations can fortify their cybersecurity defenses by embracing the insights offered by ThreatNG Security Ratings.
